After booting the computer with the kernel boot option 'acpi=off' we succeed to start anaconda. However, the I/O with the hard drive (for example formatting) was very slow.
I have set SATA emulation to IDE, and boot with acpi=off hda=noprobe hdc=noprobe then the IO speed is OK: # hdparm -t -T /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 4460 MB in 2.00 seconds = 2230.11 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 208 MB in 3.02 seconds = 68.89 MB/sec The "hda=noprobe hdc=noprobe" needs to be added manually to grub.conf after installation.
